$A$ girl looks through a circular glass slab (refractive index $1.5$) of thickness $20 \,mm$ and diameter $60 \,cm$ to the bottom of a swimming pool. The refractive index of water is $1.33$ (or $4/3$). The bottom surface of the slab is in contact with the water surface. The depth of the swimming pool is $6 \,m$. The area of the bottom of the swimming pool that can be seen through the slab is approximately ..............$m^2$.

$A$ glass prism of refractive index $1.5$ is immersed in water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) as shown in the figure. $A$ light beam incident normally on the face $AB$ is totally internally reflected at the face $AC$ to reach the face $BC$,if:
